May 1 tU.R> The baseball world Brooklyn excepted - was upside down today In Brooklyn. wild eyed fans gathered in the bars, stood on street corners .and poked their heads out of windows, asking In a challenging voice: "Do you think we'll ever , lose one?" They referred to their beloved Brooklyn Dodgers. who have just reeled off nine straight victories to tie the modern getaway record : made by the Giants in 19IH And they tied It with a no-hit. no-run game hurled by a pitcher who was ditched by the t'ubs as washed-up. a has-been — Tex tStrongheartl Carleton. tlutaldv the Brooklyn orbit strange things were happening, hut these were mere trifles What matters If the Yanks were floundering In sixth place after being held to ' two hits by an unknown erroked atm pitcher named Emil Bildllll . , If Bed Riiffltig. Yankee ace of aces, was licked by the lowly Browns ’ for his second defeat In three ' starts ... If Tommy Bridges, winner of two straight, was slugged like a bush leaguer by the Senators . . .

Pennantless for 2» years the Dodgers went west with an eight game streak and high hopes But the wise guys said, "who have they licked?"

baby who could whip them all has been a signal lot general rejoicing : Then along coUH-s Blmcli ch For the first time the goatee* of 1 the colonels are at half masi b«cause a Kentucky sire and Kentucky dam have given to the track a colt 100 swift for the good of their own |h>< ketlMHik*. Col Ed Bradley's Uw e year-old. with the 1 oat of satin and the look of conquest In his eyes, was a 1 to 9 favorite in winning the derby trial hete yesterday, lie paid off tn the miHUels at the niggardly < rate of 22 20 to win. 32.40 Io place, aud 22.20 to show Blmelei b won the ,ace so easily, and showed so much class hi i trouncing seven other darby <-ligiIdes, that there I* 110 telling what i his price will lie In the derby on Saturday. With tfi.OOo customer* at the Downs, and with all 85.000 of them completely sold on Blinelech a* not only the hor»e of the , year. but. perhaps, the hiase of all time, hl* price at post time may lie as fantastic us 1 to 20 or even 1 to 3d. If such happens, lheii th.- track must take th< tap the same a« yeslyrday The mtltuel board showed Blmelei h■> Ito favorite I liefore the lace and. had the pay ' of! been on that basis, a *2 bet would have returned J 2 Ik. But Bimebch paid 32 20 20 cent* pro fit for the le-ltor because the 1 system say* there can be no pay ; oft less than 10 cent* 011 the dollar So. if Blmelech should go to the post a l-2o favorite, os even l-20. I the bettor still would get lo cents for his dollar. Thai's why Louisville is unhappy. Every body who saw Him* l<> h run yesterday knows he will win' the derby And that fin > must lie! on him If they bet *t all At the same time, they know than- Isn't any tisa- in lie'tlng on

shim. Wti.it doth it profit a man I to ba-t I: If he can only gain 10 I cents? And the lo cents only after 1 w.ailing In a line for half an hour The 10 cents won't pay for the wear and tear on a fellow's shoes or his aia hes or his temper So. the ihoiiMinds here for the da rby face the dismal prospect of la ttliig against a sure thing They know llimtny Is going to win. but. to get any thrill at all. or to enjoy any prospect of making a llttbmoney, they must wager on a horsa- or horses they know in their hearts cun’t give the Bradley bill let more than a genth woikout To tall the truth, no one is going | to get rich betting on the plai-e or show horses In the derby. There will be no much money crammed through the windows mi Bfmelech that the second aud third nags I wont pay off more than a dime, or two.
